Get an RSX and I'll kill you. h:

But that would be a decent choice. SRT4 would be good too.

Don't RSX's have chronic understeer issues? If you are going with an Integra, get the DC2, factory oversteer, and it is so much racier and more original than a Type-S.

But didn't you say you were sick of your GS-R? I mean, I know the ITR has some significant differences but it is very similar overall, no? I'd try something different like FR or AWD.

well with the whole modding scene, it just got old, and expensive. If I got the itr i would just keep it stock and just have fun with it.

For some reason the rsx just dosent appeal to me much. im not into the leather seats, and i read that they have handling issues.

The wrx would be really cool, but everyone and their mother has one. And I dont like that at all. But then again everyone and their mother has an integra also.

my main worry is to deceide on a car and regret it down the road.

If you like it, who cares if everyone has one?
If you want a winter car, I'd rule out FR unless you are really comfortable with it or it has some kind of ASM system. But for $17k you could have a winter beater like an old corolla or civic and something nice like an RX-7, AP1, or S14 for a summer car.
